Serum Vitamin D Concentration ≥75 nmol/L Is Related to Decreased Cardiometabolic and Inflammatory Biomarkers, Metabolic Syndrome, and Diabetes; and Increased Cardiorespiratory Fitn... by Vijay Ganji (8710491)

The Anti-Tumor Agent Sodium Selenate Decreases Methylated PP2A, Increases GSK3βY216 Phosphorylation, Including Tau Disease Epitopes and Reduces Neuronal Excitability in SHSY-5Y Neu... by Wesal Habbab (17346961)

“…Somewhat surprisingly, the catalytically active form, methylated PP2A (mePP2A) was significantly decreased. In close correlation to these data, the phosphorylation state of two substrate proteins, sensitive to PP2A activity, GSK3β and Tau were found to be increased. …”

Invasive Plants Diversity, Ecological Status, and Distribution Pattern in Relation to Edaphic Factors in Different Habitat Types of District Mandi Bahauddin, Punjab, Pakistan by Muhammad Danish Jamil (17541981)

“…Because biological invasions by alien species pose a significant threat to native biodiversity, tracking alien species at various geographical scales has recently gained prominence. …”

Cross-Cultural Awareness and Attitudes Toward Threatened Animal Species by Jennifer Bruder (323066)

“…The present study examines familiarity, liking and endorsement of government protection amongst six broad cultural groups living in Qatar for five threatened animal species indigenous to the Arabian Gulf. Our findings highlight similarities and differences across cultures toward animals. …”

In vitro activities of antimicrobial agents against Proteus species from clinical specimens by Na'was, Tarek

“…Most strains were isolated from pus (62.5%) and urine (34%), but in general there were no significant differences in the rates of isolation of any of the species by age or sex, although it was noted that P. vulgaris was only isolated from patients belonging to the older age group (> 5 years). …”

Anatomical Characterization and Elements Analysis of Native and Non-Native Senna Species in Qatar by Noof Fakhroo (23753019)

“…The investigation highlights the significant differences between native <i> S. italica</i> and non-native S. occidentalis, mainly due to the presence of trichomes in the leaves, which are more plentiful in native species. …”

Effects of habitat complexity on the abundance, species richness and size of darkling beetles (Tenebrionidae) in artificial vegetation by Bartholomew, Aaron

“…Increasing complexity appeared to lead to decreasing beetle widths. 9 beetle species were relatively rare in, or absent from, the higher complexity treatments, including 5 of the 6 largest species. 2 rare, small beetle species were only found in higher complexity treatments. …”

Vegetation communities and identification of indicator species in the riparian areas of Zabarwan mountain range in the Kashmir Himalaya by Shiekh Marifatul Haq (16538978)

“…Diversity indices show significant differences in riparian vegetation between the types of plant communities. …”

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…Here, we combined molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and mutational analysis to show that the R162A mutation results in a decreased but stable <u>bioluminescence </u>activity of NLuc in living cells and in vitro. …”

Applications of bioconvection for tiny particles due to two concentric cylinders when role of Lorentz force is significant by Lei Zhang (38117)

Decreased Interfacial Dynamics Caused by the N501Y Mutation in the SARS-CoV-2 S1 Spike:ACE2 Complex by Wesam S. Ahmed (10170053)

“…In this regard, the recent SARS-CoV-2 alpha, beta, and gamma variants (B.1.1.7, B.1.351, and P.1 lineages, respectively) are of great significance in that they contain several mutations that increase their transmission rates as evident from clinical reports. …”

Morphological, Genetic Diversity and Molecular Markers Study of <i> </i><i>Senna</i> Species in Arid Regions by Njoud Abdulla Al-Ishaq (23753025)

“…The main results revealed significant differences in the morphology of native <i>Senna italica</i> in comparison to <i>Senna occidentalis</i>. …”

Kefir exhibits anti‑proliferative and pro‑apoptotic effects on colon adenocarcinoma cells with no significant effects on cell migration and invasion by Khoury, Nathalie

“…Results from RT‑PCR showed that kefir decreases the expression of transforming growth factor α (TGF‑α); and transforming growth factor‑β1 (TGF‑β1) in HT‑29 cells. …”

Whole genome sequencing of marine organisms by Oxford Nanopore Technologies: Assessment and optimization of HMW‐DNA extraction protocols by Sonia Boughattas (508422)

“…Our method proved to work significantly better for different marine species regardless of their shape, consistency, and sample preservation, improving Oxford Nanopore Technologies sequencing yield by 39 folds for Spirobranchus sp. and enabling generation of almost 10 GB data per flow cell/run for Chrysaora sp. and Palaemon sp. samples.…”

Response of cauliflower (<i>Brassica oleracea</i> L.) to nitric oxide application under cadmium stress by Jing Ma (24574)

“…The concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and Cd accumulation (roots and shoots) increased significantly (P < 0.05) under the increasing levels of Cd in all genotypes of B. oleracea while antioxidant (enzymatic or non-enzymatic) capacity and nutritional status of the plants was decreased with varying levels of Cd in the sand. …”
